abstract purpose of this paper: the objectives of this paper are two folds: (1) utilizing hierarchical fuzzy technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (topsis) approach to evaluate the most suitable rfid-based systems decision, and (2) to highlight key risks and benefits of radio frequency identification technology in healthcare industry. design/methodology/approach: resear...

abstract purpose of this paper: the purpose of this article is to review some of the most prominent applications of rfid in industries and to provide a comprehensive review of the work done from 1985 through 2007 and the research trend on that. the effectiveness of rfid and the challenges that it is facing with are also discussed. some applications of radio frequency identification in supply ch...

Nowadays Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) systems have appeared in lots of identification and authentication applications. In some sensitive applications, providing secure and confidential communication is very important for end-users. To this aim, different RFID authentication protocols have been proposed, which have tried to provide security and privacy of RFID users. In this paper, we a...

Search protocols are among the main applications of RFID systems. Since a search protocol should be able to locate a certain tag among many tags, not only it should be secure against RFID threats but also it should be affordable. In this article, an RFID-based search protocol will be presented. We use an encryption technique that is referred to as authenticated encryption in order to boost the ...

The use of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) advancement is turning out to be rapidly transversely over an extensive variety of business undertakings. Engineers apply the development not simply in customary applications, for instance, asset or stock after, also in security organizations, electronic travel papers and RFID-embedded card. In any case, RFID development moreover brings different...

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a very encouraging and fast-growing area that brings together the benefits of wireless systems, sensor networks, actuators, etc.A wide range of IoT applications have been targeted and several aspects of this field have been identified to address specific issues, as well as technologies and standards developed in various domains such as in radio frequency id...

Supply chain management has two streams of strategies, namely lean and agile. However, current RFID applications tend to overlook supply chain strategies and are designed for obvious RFID applications, like simply replacing barcodes. However, the full potential of RFID might not be achieved when RFID applications are not aligned with the supply chain strategies. Therefore, this study analyzes t...

RFID today is the popular wireless induction system. Each RFID tag in RFID system is given a unique ID (UID). The RFID tag with memory also records the on demand information. When an independent RFID tag approaches the RFID antenna, the induction between tag and antenna happens. The information and content recorded in the tag is transmitted to the RFID antenna and translated into the computatio...

Deployment of radio frequency identification (RFID) systems is rapidly growing and has the potential to affect many different industries and applications. We present a brief history of RFID technology and automatic identification systems. We summarize major RFID applications, and present a primer on RFID fundamental principles. Finally, we discuss several challenges and obstacles to RFID adopti...
